empty inside
(1/18/12)
We know that we have an empty feeling inside
Which we find hard to describe.
A sense that something is lost
And in our sleeping hours
We turn and toss.
What is this emptiness that controls
My every thought and being
It is something that I’m not seeing.
It is a part of your body that had been taken away
And you search for it day by day.
Like a piece to a jigsaw puzzle
Which leaves it incomplete
Leaving you in total defeat.
What happened to the love that once grew so strong
And now it feels like it doesn’t belong.
What happened to the feelings of happiness and joy
And you loved it like a child with a toy.
Where is that sense of being needed
Like water to a plant, and bees to honey
Like uncle scrooge to wealth and money.
Then a thought occurred to me !
I had made space for all the other things in life,
That I had forgotten, the thing that made me complete
The love for god , with which nothing can compete.
He gives us all the feelings that we have locked up inside
And these are feelings that we must not hide.
So to my lord up above, forgive me for
Forgetting your love.
“ YOU ARE WHAT MAKES ME COMPLETE”.
God is what makes us complete. great writing Louis. thoughtful .
Deep and metaphysical. We certainly feel something is missing when we fail to make a connection with the people around us.
Very good write on what makes a person complete:}
